Thanks a lot for watching and safe journeys!
Walking with a camera and talking through this chaos (and debilitating heat) is not easy. And you keep your calm face. I like the honesty of your narratives in your vlogs too. Not too many do this way ! A great job !
I sure won't ever live there in my life, just imagine all the car honks and cramped roads to drive in... as a daily driver I can't handle that lol
A unique land of vibrant colours, breathtaking landscapes and rich history, India is unlike any other. From the writhing streets of Mumbai to the idyllic shores of the Andaman Islands, this remarkable country offers a diverse feast for the senses.
The monsoon can also be an enjoyable time in some parts of India. There is a whole monsoon tourist scene in the Western Ghats of Maharashtra and also Goa and Karnataka. It's fun to get wet in the rain while climbing the hills through the clouds. Everything is lush and green and you will see a different aspect of India. You should look at the monsoon trekking videos.
Beautiful walk with you through Delhi!
Both namaskar and the popular variant namaste have the same root word in Sanskrit: namas, which means “bowing or homage.” Namaskar is made up of the root words namas and kara, meaning “doing,” while namaste is made up of namas and te, meaning “you.”
Yes, new videos of india! Those are your best episodes! They remind me so much of my time in india, you really bring back all the good memories with your videos gabriel, thank you so much!
Looks like you have handled the Delhi Touts before !! I love the friendly conversation you have with them without losing your patience ..😅😅
Enjoyed the video! Thanks for taking us with you ☺️
Another wonderful video of Delhi. Can't wait for the next. Good work Gabe.
Namaskar is attained from Sanskrit word meaning to bow down in respect to the divine energy, while Namaste is attained from Sanskrit word meaning to greet in respect to the other person. Namaskar is used only for the elder people, higher authorities etc while Namaste is used by everyone including young people too. In south of India you can use Namaskaram
Also, it depends on the language. Like in Assamese and Bengali (Odiya, I’m not sure) its “Nomoskar”, North, West and Central India normally use “Namaste” and in south it’s “Namaskaram”.
I’m from Assam, so “Nomoskar” 🙏
personally i always feel relieved to leave Delhi...it's every man for himself there in my experience...it wears me down and i think as it gets hotter it becomes more unbearable there...i flew to Bodh Gaya from Delhi and then to Benares and it was a different world and much calmer. It's wonderful to see India again and i wish you good travels there.
Yeah big cities in India are very hectic there is a lot of fun in visiting the smaller places. Shimla, Dharamshala, Amritsar, and Gangtok are my personal favorites.
Thank you Gabriel for your work. Love and peace.
Really enjoyed this unedited walk through Delhi . Such an amazing sight it's difficult to understand how everybody avoids each other. Also amazing not to see one piece of graffiti. Unlike like the video I just saw in Athens with Johnny FD. Thanks for these Indian videos ,so interesting.
Very interesting to see Gabriel. Thank you for sharing
Love that you’re back in India 🇮🇳 I agree, it’s a land of such contradiction and that is what makes it such a rich place to experience. Your love of the country really comes across. I would put India up there as the No.1 travel experience!
these are your best videos yet
Great street scenes you filmed ! Would love to see more of the food / snacks and drinks your having out there !
I really love your India videos. Hope you go back soon. They are lots more interesting than hanging out at the beach all over the place. But I guess many people like that sort of thing. Thank you for your work. I appreciate it.
Well done Gabriel. My favourite kind of travel vlog is an Indian (and Nepal) travel vlog...keep 'em coming.
Great video Gabriel Stay safe .
Thank you for showing the city and be safe out there. Love your channel.
Thanks and definitely. 👍
Awesome video. It really has to be such an experience.
Yes the powerlines look super unsafe. How do they know what goes where? I would not want to be the electrician who has to figure that out. :)
great video.. lovely view of the city
Thank you for the impressive video! 😍🥰😘
perfect perfect thanks dear Gabriel for this video
I like it when you talk! I enjoy your commentary.
Feels like I’m there! Good video
Hi 👋 Simply next level walking tour! ! ! That was above and beyond goodness! ! ! 👍✌️
Cool.
I love your walk and talk videos Gabriel 👍 😀
Never bored! I went back and watched parts of this at .5 speed just so I could really look at everything that was in the frame
Gabriel, interesting video for New Delhi, India, people look enthusiastic rapid pace.
Enjoy your travels.
totally fascinating!
More plz; a fascinating way of life...thanks! Have a good one, again!
Never boring! Rest assured that we are enjoying every minute of your videos. Thank you!
Amazing...admire you so much, u stay safe though
PS...want more, never boring!
The talking's fine, it's better if it's about what you're seeing and experiencing as you walk along, though. The long stories don't seem to fit the videos and are a little distracting, I have to admit. Great content, though. India's an amazing culture!
Do you see any changes in the streets and general area around Jama Mazjid since your last visit in 2011,almost 11 years ago?
And welcome back to India Sir!
I love gabriel video so unique and profesional❤❤
Great 👍 vlog brother !!!
16:19 Old Delhi is shaped like the left the palm of your hand, Paharganj at the thumb tip, spice market at the index finger, Chandi chalk runs along the top of the fingers, that metro is at the base of the thumb and index finger, and Jama majid is at the lower pinky.
26:15 - the answer would have to be: more! 😍 of this epic, (nearly) unedited content! 30:40: 😂 I mean, you are literally and by far the coolest of the youtubers I follow 👏
He is indeed 😎
Love it! You've convinced me to start planning my second trip to India!! I think I'll wait until after monsoon though haha.
i should also wait till after monsoon bro but as a State worker i only have vacation on July/August😫😫😩😩
Meet us plz i am from delhi
beautiful place thank you for sharing your video
Great vlog 👍👌
I love Indian food and products from India. I would spend a lot of money there! Thank you for the awesome video. Love the channel.
Amazing city, im speechless
This is one of the best VDO I have ever seen. It is very exciting view. Cheer...Cheer.
Nice video m8, india streetlife is always interesting ,!
At last... my sanity has come along ... really looking forward to your escapade into peace 💕👋
Delhi has some of very beautiful gardens, how can you miss that?
What's the point of that
Gab you walking in these streets like you was born there good job man
Lovely view! 🌺😍 Gods creation is so beautiful!
We should spend more time on discovering beautiful places in the world....thank you to help us in that!!!🥰❤💯👍
If I remember correctly, getting back to Paharganj from the Chandni Chowk area requires crossing over the trail tracks, which complicates things when you're on foot. So a rickshaw's probably the way to go.
While in lockdown in Goa 2020, we enjoyed 'rainy season' May-August
Delhi is too crowded now and sound pollution is very high but first time on your video, love it
Gabe , do you remember how I recommended that hotel for you in Darjeeling with views of the mountains in your earlier video? Here's two more to consider, 1) Hotel Capital which is next door to Hotel Dekeling and 2) Planters Club which has a lot of history as the establishment was built by the British for the Tea Plantation Managers and Assitants in the late 1800s. Today it is open to the public and very reasonably priced. Stay in the upstairs rooms to get a good view if you decide to stay at the Club.
Great, thanks again for the tips.
You could've gone to a Citibank ATM on Chandni Chowk Rd. I stayed on Esplande in Chandni Chowk a few years ago. It's close to all the sights.
During Monsoon time you can visit entire Meghalaya(June to August). The capital is Shillong. It is called the Scotland of the East. It is situated north east Region 3 hrs from the Gauhati city( the capital of Assam).
And please visit Darjeeling, Sandakfu and North Sikkim during summer season when you can see the beautiful mountain range of Kanchanjangha. Thanks
Scotland could be called Shillong of West Europe!!
Your senses are wide awake after that journey. I'm wondering if you are going to visit any of India's beautiful old step wells. ?
Very very likely.
Not going to visit India anytime soon, but interesting to see what is going on.
Good 1 - thanks
Friendliness Humility Humour Simplicity..Innocence ...its all there in the People of India.
Namaste is the basic greeting.
Namaskar is similar but normally with elders to show respect. 🙏
Gabriel, thanks yours videos I was two times in India in last 4 years. I've travelled all around, from North to South. Last time corona happened, lockdown all airports, I escape with last evacuation flight ...
And definitely coming back..
Enjoy Gabriel, and thanks for great videos. You are 👑👑👊😘😘
Good that you caught the last flight, sounds like that was close!
Google Maps works without internet too. We just need to select an area and save it as an offline map. Now we can use it for navigation as a car. Walking directions don’t work with offline maps.
Hi Gabriel, That hat that guy had on was funny dope it's funny what people will wear. It had to be time to get out of the city of Delhi for no other reason than the heat and the heavy crowds.
A blessed good day sir Gabe thanks for your wonderful walk around tour There in Busy Streets, in India nice Vibes, and Beautiful 😍 Markets, And products, and goods, and local food, to buy, stay safe, Godbless u 🙏🙂 from your solid fan viewer from the Philippines 🇵🇭 sir Vhin,🙏😍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Haha...INTENSE. :-)....and never boring.
Thanks for inspiring our upcoming trip to India! Any thoughts about taking three kids aged 10, 7, and 3 to Northern India?
Good luck with that 😊
@@janed7774 thank you! We’ve traveled in Southern India with our kids when they were younger. We’re looking forward to coming back.
@@BagsPackedFamily I’m envious of that .. but not bitter 😊💕.. exploring is perfect for balancing and grounding 😊 peace
Haha go to the himalayas straight from delhi.
Moonshine is traveling with his kids..u can follow him on youtube..
Gab you should walk on the shady side of the street that way youd be less tired. The heat tires one out
Las night I watch your videos in istabul.now India.it is great to travel abroad
Its ironic that I Grew up in Delhi, passed by Red Fort and Jama Masjid every day on my way to college for 3 years taking a connecting Bus at Red Fort Bus stop to the Univ campus and never got to go inside the Jama Masjid or the Red Fort, and now seeing inside the Jama Masjid thru the camera of a fellow American traveler.
As a Connoisseur of fine whiskey, I recommend you try India's Bagpiper Whiskey brand, I'd rank it among the best in the world in terms of taste and quality -- light malty aroma, smooth woody character, Gabe.
Have good weekend
My wife and I just discovered your CZcams channel and are thoroughly enjoying your travels in India! Out of curiosity how do you know which restaurants or street vendors are safe to eat at and what are the police dividers in most of the streets?
Safe travels and we look forward to your upcoming videos.
Hi Mark, thanks for watching. Not exactly sure about the police dividers but I guess to keep traffic in order to some extent. As for restaurants, I just eat wherever looks good, that's it. I've been lucky to avoid food poisoning in India so far. Not everyone does but it's hard to know where you might have a problem. Best tip is to make sure and eat freshly prepared food that hasn't been sitting around. Cheers.
Make sure you get the pickled mango with you meals. It takes curry to a new level.
Wow Gabriel 😳 enter at your own risk! 🤦♀️ alot going on! Stay safe! ❤🙏
Please come over to Bangalore, Gabriel?
It looks plenty hot in April, but I have only been there in July so I might trade for that.
The Hindu in Hindustan doesn't mean people following Hindu faith, it means people who live east of Indus river (which is in Pakistan now). In Arabic India is known as Hind and Indian as Hindu no matter what religion one follows. This Hind has come from the word Sind which is River Indus in English. In India one can river Indus in Ladakh but it most flows in Pakistan.
What a beautiful country India
Welcome to Delhi.
That heat I could not stand 😩
Beverly from Jakarta 🙋🏻♀️ nice episode 👍
Dude, im pretty sure the chaos of dheli would give me ptsd...
hey Gabriel and I also going to be your Patreon member
Great, thanks a lot.
Gabe, have you considered going to Bangledash? Seems like a ultra cool place also, maybe Mumbai while in India?
Definitely, it's high on my list to visit.
i gabariala welcome to india i am your subscribers from long days when you had taken a shelter in canadian national park during covid .. and there was a bear also nearby your tent.. so nice to see you here.. if you get time then please visit to varanasi.. i live here.. love you brother.
It amazes me that their electrical wiring works. Did you happen to see any accidents of vehicles crashing into each other during your walk?
I've seen accidents that happened on the roads in India, luckily nothing serious. It definitely happens though, the accident rates are pretty high.
Wait I get the traffic but why wouldn’t the wiring work? It’s in the video near the buildings. India he almost universal electric access.
Gabriel,you've said a couple of times thst your phone service wasn't working here while walking around, which were you using?
T-Mobile. It works in most places, but not around the Red Fort for some reason.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos nice one, maybe I'll bump into you one day for a beer.😄

WHERE DOES NAMASKAR COME FROM?
namaskar
Both namaskar and the popular variant namaste have the same root word in Sanskrit: namas, which means “bowing or homage.” Namaskar is made up of the root words namas and kara, meaning “doing,” while namaste is made up of namas and te, meaning “you.” As such, namaskar and namaste are both respectful and very formal salutations roughly translating as “I bow (to you).” Namaste can be used in Hinduism specifically to acknowledge the divinity in another person or god.
Namaskar is most often accompanied by a particular mudra, or gesture, in which a person presses their palms together by the forehead or the chest. Namaskar can also be accompanied with a bow.
32:00 Namaskar is more formal than Namaste. One more thing Namaste is predominantly used in northan areas but if you go other areas for e.g. in east like Kolkata local people prefer Namaskar not Namaste. Other common word, Dhanyabad (Thank You) is common across all places except south. Bald picked 2 nice informal greetings "Sab thi thak ? (all good) or "Kaise ho Bhai (How are you Bro)" ? 😀 connects instantly with folks.
Pleasure to know you are visiting Kolkata. It's called "City of Joy".It's also known for people's elegant culture. So many great soul born here. Ramakrishna, Swami Vivekananda, Rabindranath Tagore, Rishi Aravindo, Raja Rammohan Roy, Iswar Chandra Vidya Sagar and so on. All have contributed a lot in social reforms in all over India. Though it saddens me sometimes observing somehow now a days society reversing back from great men's ideology.
Anyway, you may visit Victoria Memorial, Fort William Kolkata , Howrah Bridge, Belur Math, Kolkata Indian Museum ( one of the oldest Museum in the world), St.Paul's Cathedral Kolkata(said to be the first cathedral built in the overseas). Visit Rabindra Sarovar very early in the morning, peaceful. Most importantly don't miss " Botanical Garden" founded by Robert Kyd in 1787. Here the "Great Banyan Tree" will amaze you. Many more you can explore.
You may visit few kilometers away from Kolkata- the world largest Delta "the Ganges Delta" along the bay of Bengal. Then you may head towards Darjeeling in North Bengal. I must assure you you will enjoy your trekking. Many more you can explore there.
The other great soul who I remember born in Kolkata is Oscar winner Satyajit Ray. All in all a culturally rich city.
@@exchangeyo yeah. Thank you.
U ever plan on traveling to Bhutan?
that city has a lot of people.
